Okie, I've searched it in SO and I've not found it. Can someone tell me a good open source query builder tool for working with Microsoft SQL Server databases?
DBVisualizer will do the trick. It's Opensource and can be configured to use with almost any DBMS.

DBVisualizer Query Builder
What about Management Studio? But, it is not open source.

Can I use free SQLServer Express in my commercial windows project? Are there any license issues? How many nodes it supports in multiuser environment ?
Quick answer is Yes. I have heard of MS themselves say it is OK. See this MSDN forums thread.
SQL Server Express is distributed for free and can be used reliably in any small business application.
The Wikipedia article is quite good at highlighting the key drawbacks of using an Express edition compared to a commercial SQL Server instance. Most notable perhaps is the lack of a SQL Server Agent process, which is usually used for job scheduling.

There are a lot of tools but it is not clear which one will do the job right, so any help?

Is there a way to change the window title of my SQL Server Management Studio to display current server I'm connected to?
To know which DB I'm connected to, I have to scroll all the way up to see the name of the server and it's a pain..
Maybe there's an available plug-in or something.
SSMSTools will colour code each management studio window based on the server you're using. It's a start and it's free.
